Activity: Anglo-Chinese School (International)’s Passion of dreams Concert.

Date: 16^th and 17^th May 2008, Friday and Saturday

My duty for the event began at 1830 hrs. I was down to help out as part of the students’ council at the reception area and ticketing. From then till like 2030hrs, I was standing by the entrance of the concert hall, waiting to tear off the tickets from the audiences. At certain point of time during the night, especially during the interval, I was made to stand by the door collecting donatations for the less fortunate China Earthquake victims or used as an usher to prevent people from entering unauthorized areas of the hall.

The following day, though I was needed for that night, I volunteered myself again to help out. I had to go to the venue slightly earlier to help blow balloons which were later released that night. After that, I repeated the exact same duties as before. When the concert finally ended. I stayed back to help clean up the place. From this experience, I learnt that being quick and alert was important as I while tearing off the tickets, I had to ensure the audience entering the hall have a valid ticket for the day or preventing anybody from sneaking in. During the event itself, I was given a break and was allowed to view the performances. While watching I felt a bit useless on why I was sitting down on the seats watching the performance instead of being up on stage. That made me feel like joining a performing arts CCA.

Back again! From now on, I think I shall just blog once a month. Starting from the 16th of May. Was selected for 4th Students' Council Delegates....oh Yay! Finally something! Following on, that night was ACS (International)'s very own ''Passion of Dreams'' Concert which was held at ACS(BR) (Memories for me!). At the concert, I was helping out at the reception/entrance, tearing away the tickets and holding the doors open. I had to do this duty for the following night as well. Though I had to do duty, I still managed to get to watch the full concert...not once but twice...FOR FREE!!!

21st May: Then there was Wii Games day. Student Council Delegates were left to plan it, though the idea wasn't from us. WE HAD ONLY 5 days to plan it, come out with a proposal and publicise it. The Student Council Delegates were split into two groups, Alpha and Zeta. This two groups had to compete against each other in terms collecting the highest amount of money. I was in Alpha and Alpha won (thanks to our leadership! :) ) The money raised was donated to the China Earthquake Victims.

22nd May: Sports/ track and field meet. In Green Green Thoburn house. 1st from Oldham then to GHK and now in Thoburn. Can't I be like harry potter and remain in the same house throughout my schooling years. Haiz! Volunteered as a helper, as a first aider. Had nothing to do, while getting my CAS hours as there was a paramedic present. Muahahaha!

Following the the Sports Meet had to go for some school's(cannot mention in case I get into trouble) Interact Club investiture. Ohh it was terrible, messy and so disorganised. I think my investiture will definitely be 100xxx better. This day marks the end of the term and the start of the holidays. Yay!
